OMAN —Oman Power and Water Procurement Company (OPWP) SAOC has issued a public tender for the development and operation of an independent solar power project located at Wadi Endam, known as the Sinaw Solar IPP. As the sole buyer of electricity and desalinated water in the Sultanate of Oman, the state-backed entity plays a pivotal role in implementing national energy policies and driving the transition toward green energy sources.
The scope of work encompasses the complete development, construction, ownership, and operation of the Sinaw Solar Independent Power Producer project at Wadi Endam. Bidders are expected to design, procure, build, and maintain the utility-scale solar photovoltaic facility to bolster national grid supply and meet expanding electricity demands.
This initiative represents a critical milestone in executing Oman's National Energy Strategy, which targets generating a significant share of the country's total electricity demand from renewable resources. By harnessing abundant solar irradiance in the Al Sharqiyah region, the project aims to reduce domestic dependence on natural gas for power generation while cutting carbon emissions across the industrial sector.
For global investors and energy developers, the project underscores expanding market opportunities within the Middle Eastern clean tech ecosystem. Independent power producer frameworks offer long-term revenue visibility through structured power purchase agreements, making Oman a compelling destination for international capital, engineering firms, and utility operators specializing in large-scale renewable infrastructure.
